A CCC+ credit rating indicates a borrower or debt instrument with a high risk of default, but slightly better than those rated lower, such as CCC or CC. While entities with a CCC+ rating are still highly speculative, they have a marginally better chance of meeting their financial obligations compared to lower-rated entities. This rating suggests that the borrower is vulnerable to adverse economic conditions, which could lead to default if they worsen. Investors in CCC+-rated debt demand high returns to compensate for the elevated risk.
A struggling company might receive a CCC+ rating if it shows some potential for recovery but is still at a high risk of defaulting on its debt obligations.
• CCC+ is a speculative-grade credit rating indicating a high risk of default.
• It suggests marginally better prospects than CCC or CC-rated entities.
• Investors typically demand high returns due to the elevated risk of default.
